I have a single 1.25 Ghz CPU vers. 3.3 MDD Power PC G4, w/boot ROM v. 
4.4.8f2, if I read the info correctly.
I got a single "Software Install and Restore" DVD with my unit, which 
was [only] the OS 10.2.6 disc.

It might allow me to ONLY install the OS 9 or Classic stuff, but I was 
leery of starting the disc not knowing if I would be presented with a 
choice of what to install!
